Johannesburg - The Democratic Alliance on Thursday welcomed the suspension of the Gauteng economic development department's head, Khulu Radebe.

“Last year the DA raised the red flag over the department's failure to place 10,000 youth in jobs due to budgetary constraints and delays in setting up the programme management office,” DA MPL Jack Bloom said on Thursday.

“The department also failed to spend R23.3 million in key economic development programmes.”
